Hi!
You can change any port to pep517 except in very few cases when this
would introduce a circular dependency.
pep517 is now a default way to build python packages because distutils
is now deprecated in Python.
In the case of textproc/py-pyphen - it used the ad-hoc setup.py that
wasn't registering it properly, because this was added before pep517 was
available.
Hope this helps.
Yes, thanks. I retested and found out that weasyprint had no DEPEND
on any of the flit* stuff. It needs it to build, but not to run.
So it was not an issue of distutils vrs pep517.
Just for the case, you missed it ;)
In https://wiki.freebsd.org/Python/PEP-517 you can read about the build
backend you have to specify, if using pep517. This is mentioned in the
initial commit [1], which introduces USE_PYTHON=pep517.
HTH and best wishes,
Rainer
